Re: Modelling Heme
by Roberto Sanchez 14 Feb '02

14 Feb '02

It is possible to transfer the heme group from the template to the target (model) using a "block" residue as suggested by Andras. But as Christoph pointed out the heme residue type is defined in the Modeller topology libraries, and the corresponding parameters are present in the parameter libraries. So (in theory) all you need to know is how to refer to the HEME residue in the alignment file. This you can figure out by looking at Modeller's residue type library (restyp.lib) where you will find the entry: 31 | HEM | h | HEME | heme ligand this tells you that Modeller uses 'h' as the one-letter code for the HEME residue. Now all you need to do is add the 'h' residues in the right places of your template and target sequences in the alignment, add "SET HETATM_IO = on" to the TOP file, cross you fingers, and re-run Modeller. If all is fine the heme group will appear in your model. The difference between this approach and using a block residue is that the block residue is treated as a rigid object that is just copied from the template to the model, for example Modeller can not distort the block residue and the rest of the protein does not "feel" its presence beyond the protein - block residue distance restraints extracted from the template. This limitation dissapears when defining the heme group as a proper residue. I hope this helps.

Modelling Heme
by Christoph Nimptsch 14 Feb '02

14 Feb '02

Dear Modellers, I am trying to model a protein containing a heme group. There is a residue type called heme in top_heav.lib, but I don`t know how to utilize it. I am aware of changing my alignment to include HETATMs but I haven`t succeeded yet. Do I have to change the pdb-templates to include the heme residue? How can I make it clear that MODELLER 6v1 should use it? Is it possible to receive the model with the heme group in it? Thanks for any suggestions, Christoph Nimptsch

restraints on beta strands
by Juliette Martin 13 Feb '02

13 Feb '02

I m building a protein with a template of relatively low identity score, but good HCA alignement . I want to restraint parts of my protein to be in beta strands. I tried SUBROUTINE ROUTINE = 'special_restraints' SET ADD_RESTRAINTS = on MAKE_RESTRAINTS RESTRAINT_TYPE = 'strand', RESIDUE_IDS = '60' '64' MAKE_RESTRAINTS RESTRAINT_TYPE = 'strand', RESIDUE_IDS = '71' '76' RETURN END_SUBROUTINE and SUBROUTINE ROUTINE = 'special_restraints' SET ADD_RESTRAINTS = on MAKE_RESTRAINTS RESTRAINT_TYPE = 'strand', RESIDUE_IDS = '60' '64' MAKE_RESTRAINTS RESTRAINT_TYPE = 'strand', RESIDUE_IDS = '71' '76' MAKE_RESTRAINTS RESTRAINT_TYPE = 'SHEET', ATOM_IDS = 'N:60' 'O:76', SHEET_H-BONDS = -5 RETURN END_SUBROUTINE in the top file, but beta strands are not in any of my models, nor it is in the structure .ini . Is it possible that the restraint is too 'heavy' for the molecule?

** MODELLER Support ** Docking with modeller ?
by Bozidar Jerkovic 12 Feb '02

12 Feb '02

Dear Roman, In theory YES. Is it useful? It depends how much time and effort you want to invest in it. Please take a look at FAQs 8-12, to see how you can add restrains manually. Also we encourage people to post questions to MODELLER list directly, so that other members of the community can benefit from this correspondence. Lep pozdrav, Bozidar -----Original Message----- From: Roman Jerala [mailto:roman@hp14.cmm.ki.si] Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2002 3:55 PM To: bozidar(a)salilab.org Subject: Docking with modeller ? Dear Bozidar, can you tell me if it is possible (and usefull) to use Modeller for docking or modelling complexes. In principle if restraints (such as NOEs or perhaps chemical shift changes, which are more "fuzzy") can be entered this should in principle drive the ligand to the correct position.

3D Gap penalty
by Lei Wang 11 Feb '02

11 Feb '02

Hi, modellers, I like to know what's the meaning, and range for variable "Gap penalty". On the manual web-page: http://salilab.org/modeller/manual/node168.html it just said "working in progress" and did not give a explanation. So could some one explain it here? Thanks, Lei

Re: create a disulphide in a protein

Dear Giulio, The log file contains the following error message: rdpir___270E> Error reading/processing file: /lab/giulio/cu/homology/align.pir which means Modeller had trouble reading your alignment file. The alignment file looks like this: >P1;alr2 structure:alr2:1 : :316 : : ::-1.00:-1.00 ASRLLLNNGAKMPILGLGTWKSPPGQVTEAVKVAIDVGYRHIDCAHVYQNENEVGVAIQEKLREQVVKREELFIV SKLWCTYHEKGLVKGACQKTLSDLKLDYLDLYLIHWPTGFKPGKEFFPLDESGNVVPSDTNILDTWAAMEELVDE GLVKAIGISNFNHLQVEMILNKPGLKYKPAVNQIECHPYLTQEKLIQYCQSKGIVVTAYSPLGSPDRPWAKPEDP SLLEDPRIKAIAAKHNKTTAQVLIRFPMQRNLVVIPKSVTPERIAENFKVFDFELSSQDMTTLLSYNRNWRVCAL LSCTSHKDYPFHEEF/. >P1;dis sequence:dis:1 : :316 : : ::-1.00:-1.00 ASRLLLNNGAKMPILGLGTWKSPPGQVTEAVKVAIDVGYRHIDCAHVYQNENEVGVAIQEKLREQVVKREELFIV SKLWCTYHEKGLVKGACQKTLSDLKLDYLDLYLIHWPTGFKPGKEFFPLDESGNVVPSDTNILDTWAAMEELVDE GLVKAIGISNFNHLQVEMILNKPGLKYKPAVNQIECHPYLTQEKLIQYCQSKGIVVTAYSPLGSPDRPWAKPEDP SLLEDPRIKAIAAKHNKTTAQVLIRFPMQRNLVVIPKSVTPERIAENFKVFDFELSSQDMTTLLSYNRNWRVCAL LSCTSHKDYPFHEEF/. The end of sequence in Modeller should be marked by '*', not '.'. That's why Modeller can't read the alignment file and doesn't produce any output.

Re: create a disulphide in a protein
by Roberto Sanchez 11 Feb '02

Dear Giulio, Method 1) should work. It is difficult to know exactly what is happening unless you tell us more about the output you get. But a common mistake is to use the numbering of the template, instead of the numbering of the model, when specifying the RESIDUE_IDS of the residues to be patched. In your script, does '298' '303' correspond to the numbering of the cysteine residues in the template or the model? It should be the numbering in the model. I hope this helps.
